Document Summary
Energy cycle for a nike basketball shoe: the production of the shoe starts at nike headquarters (hq) located in portland, Oregon, where staff members and basketball analysis are working on the next innovative basketball shoe. This process requires people, computers and lighting powered by detroit hydroelectricity plant located in oregon, which uses a power generator fueled by the downstream of big cliff dam [1]. Once the design has been produced, nike hq will then contact all their private manufacturers all over the world for materials to create the shoe. The most common plant responsible for 90% of the world"s rubber is called hevea bransilienis found in the amazon rainforests and as well as some forests in. The process requires paid workers to extract the latex from the plant by drilling holes into the plant and collecting the solution a bucket.
